We did this for my mother and it really was wonderful. The people at the society were great, they handled everything. They were respectful and took care of it, we got the time we needed after she passed and that was that. Contrasted that with my step-dad, holy moly was that stressful. The confusion, the funeral home, calls, meetings, arraignments, on and on.
I can't speak to what this guy saw or the seminars or whatever, but getting it all figured out ahead of time when you're rational and not dealing with grief is a blessing. It was also cheaper all said and done and not an immediate outlay that you didn't expect. I'll definitely get something like this when we get closer to the finish line.
